Beauport Bay is a sheltered bay located on the Saint Lawrence River estuary in Quebec, Canada. The spot features a protected northeastern-facing coastline with visible sand accumulations and shallow water zones typical of estuarine environments. The bay is bordered by developed areas including commercial infrastructure, highways, and recreational facilities.
The site is characterized by weak wind conditions (6.0 knots average) and low wind reliability (4.3%), making it suitable primarily for light-wind sessions. The shallow, enclosed nature of the bay limits wave generation and fetch distance. Best conditions occur with northwesterly to westerly winds that approach side-shore to the northeastern coast.
This spot is most appropriate for beginners and lighter-weight kiters due to consistent light winds and protected waters. The confined geography and nearby infrastructure require awareness of surroundings. Water temperatures are cold, averaging 6.3°C, necessitating appropriate thermal protection. The spot's viability depends heavily on wind pattern consistency and seasonal variations typical of the Saint Lawrence region.
